 * Keep - Keep on 3 grounds. First, if you're familiar with the internet make up - those references are all you need in the entire world.  Unless there was a wikipedia reference guide specifically for handling domain registars, I can't see a reason why you would want or need more.  DNSstuff it, but it's so obvious to anyone, this should not even need a reference.  It's part of Template:Generic_top-level_domains navbar via stub already, suggest move to that stub?  You have .net & .com on here, the most notable, also listings for the countries.  A root level domain is something of a big deal.  IamM1rv (talk) 17:40, 15 April 2015 (UTC)
 * There will be thousands of root level domains, and by definition anything in the root zone file can be found on the ICANN site. It's a primary self-published source. The times when all TLDs (about 200, mostly ccTLDs) were notable are gone. Not everything that costs roughly $ 200,000 is notable, it needs reliable third party references, cf. WP:42. –Be..anyone (talk) 04:52, 17 April 2015 (UTC)
 * Comment – If not independently notable, merging to Generic top-level domain would be more functional than deletion in terms of providing comprehensive encyclopedic content about generic top-level domains for Wikipedia's readers. North America1000 19:01, 15 April 2015 (UTC)

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.

 * Redirect or merge to Generic top-level domain. Same deal as the previous nomination, except this one seems to have even less coverage in reliable sources.  It's a bit difficult to search for "builders" and not get junk results, though.  Just because it's a top level domain doesn't mean that it's inherently notable.

 * Merge to Generic top-level domain. North America1000 02:03, 29 April 2015 (UTC)
